A Summer in Italy

Explore great food and an unforgettable experience.


Approaching soon in the summer of 2017, there will be a trip of a lifetime. The photography class will be heading to Florence, Italy. Florence, Italy will be the starting point but then the group will make their way to different parts of Italy. Sure there will there be great food. I am sure many students look forward to going to Italy and trying their finest wines, pizzas, pastas, and other wonderful Italian cuisines, but this will also be a trip of a lifetime. A true learning and growing experience for each and every person that goes on this trip. I know many student worry that the money is not available, but IUSB can help you to make this happen!

Not only will students be able to get the experience of a lifetime, students will also be able to remember the trip by capturing Italy's beautiful scenery. Susan Moore, a photography professor that teaches many different levels and courses will be the trip leader. After hearing her speak at a lecture, she ensured the entire audience of what a magical experience this is. Let me explain how a typical day would start out. The small group would wake up, grab coffee, and set out to explore Italy. A camera is always needed on you so you can capture what you feel is unique and beautiful. It is a busy day or traveling all over Italy, so you definitely get your workout! But, it is a great way to see Italy and get to know other students from your school.This is a great way for students to have an experience of a lifetime and also earn college credit that counts towards your degree. This is a chance for college students to live with a host family and learn about their host family's culture. This will provide the students with a learning and growing experience to see the world from a different view.

I hope each and every one of you will take to time and opportunity to experience this chance of a lifetime.
